The guise of the song is advice, but I think it may be self-advice -- kind of a pep talk to one's self. "But the silent majority is the crime of the century" is the toughest line for me to decipher, but I think it means that failing to be "straight about" being in love would be a crime.
Great song, one of my favorite Robyn Hitchcock songs.
